What is @nodelib/fs.stat?

The @nodelib/fs.stat package is a utility for Node.js that provides an efficient way to get the status of a file or directory. It wraps the fs.stat, fs.lstat, and fs.fstat functions from the Node.js file system module with additional features such as following symbolic links and handling errors more gracefully.

What are @nodelib/fs.stat's main functionalities?

Getting file status

This feature allows you to asynchronously get the status of a file. The callback provides either an error or the stats object.

const { stat } = require('@nodelib/fs.stat');

stat('path/to/file', (error, stats) => {
  if (error) {
    console.error(error);
    return;
  }

  console.log(stats);
});

Getting file status synchronously

This feature allows you to synchronously get the status of a file. It either returns the stats object or throws an error.

const { statSync } = require('@nodelib/fs.stat');

try {
  const stats = statSync('path/to/file');
  console.log(stats);
} catch (error) {
  console.error(error);
}

Getting file status with a promise

This feature allows you to get the status of a file using promises. It resolves with the stats object or rejects with an error.

const { stat } = require('@nodelib/fs.stat');

stat('path/to/file').then(stats => {
  console.log(stats);
}).catch(error => {
  console.error(error);
});
